For the past two weeks Cleveland (Believeland), Ohio has been making their case at becoming synonymous with something other than Bone Thugs. First with Neon Tongues, and now with the mysterious Cloud Nothings. While I don’t know much about these dudes, I think it’s safe to say that the tunes speak for themselves. Carrying on the lo-fi tradition that’s been hotter than this past Texas Summer, their tracks are still airy enough to float over the wall of fuzz. Some serious cool kids. Look for an Untitled (see mysterious?) CD to drop soon with Bridgetown Records.

These new guys out of Cleveland, Neon Tongues, are going to be the reason for yet another lo-fi sub-genre (no worries, I’m not gonna be “that guy” and try to name it). This might have very well been recorded on one of those Home Alone talkboys, but I’ve always been a sucker for raw dusty recordings. Also, never knew that Tim Perry (Weed Diamond) had his own blog. Looks like he’s crushin’ on these guys too.
